This highly anticipated print collection gathers articles published in the much-loved International Journal of Proof-of-Concept or Get The Fuck Out.

PoC||GTFO follows in the tradition of Phrack and Uninformed by publishing on the subjects of offensive security research, reverse engineering, and file format internals. Until now, the journal has only been available online or printed and distributed for free at hacker conferences worldwide.

Consistent with the journal's quirky, biblical style, this book comes with all the trimmings: a leatherette cover, ribbon bookmark, bible paper, and gilt-edged pages. The book features more than 80 technical essays from numerous famous hackers, authors of classics like "Reliable Code Execution on a Tamagotchi," "ELFs are Dorky, Elves are Cool," "Burning a Phone," "Forget Not the Humble Timing Attack," and "A Sermon on Hacker Privilege." Twenty-four full-color pages by Ange Albertini illustrate many of the clever tricks described in the text.

A long awaited collection of a beloved journal. I can only imagine how much time and effort went into preparing this release both from the author and publishers. There really was not other way to make this book happen other than in a form of a bible.

No better way to fight bitrot and preserve knowledge! Lets see this one spread across the world so as many copies survive the flame deluge!

This book is gorgeous. The binding and the material, it's just an absolute pleasure to hold in my hand. You can see the detail, effort and love that went into this book. The content is of course superb, hilarious, brilliant. Everything a hacker book should be. Highly recommended. This will make a brilliant holiday gift for a loved one.

The PoC || GTFO is not a tome for everyone, but I hope to someday be the person for whom it was written. There is gentle comfort in picking it up, letting it fall open to any passage, and asking, "What would Travis do?"

It has improved my life and in particular my ability to communicate with 74,000 others around the world. Highly recommended for the technically inquisitive.
